The Loch is a subalpine lake; farther upstream, Lake of Glass and Sky Pond sit in alpine terrain. Sampling locations include lake inlets (where water enters), outlets (where it leaves), and the hypolimnion (the deeper water layer below the warmer surface during summer stratification).
Beyond water chemistry, explore USGS discharge and meteorological records, atmospheric deposition at NADP station CO98, and additional data releases and field records. Species records are also described in the research publications.
